It's sorta sad how thrilled I am to see MGSports here, I didn't realize how much I missed him when EHM originally died. I always enjoyed seeing his completely insane requests for additions to the game.
I've never known whether he's serious or just doing it all for comedic effect but it's fun. I still remember his thread from shortly after EHM 2005 launched wondering why they couldn't somehow implement the DH rule from baseball.

I'd actually like that as an optional feature you could tick off that a small percentage of female players would be generated.
EHM 2007 had at least one (Shannon Szabados). Perhaps it's not strictly realistic (hence only as an option) but it'd be a nice fantasy addition that wouldn't otherwise have any real impact on gameplay.

THere have been a few reports of female named players in EHM EA, but gender still shows as male.

I would go with Scouts for sure for KC, and for Orlando much prefer Solar Bears.

How many conferences and divisions in your EHM game mg? I Know you have not bought it yet, but will you? I would love to see a list of your dream league and conferences/divisions and teams, plus the starting line up for the St Louis Blues (all 23 players that make the original team in your first game of EHM mgsports style league.

Moving Trade Deadline Date like to end of season by letting us change date.

MGSports - Please stop starting threads with undescriptive titles. I've asked twice previously that you read the Forum Guidelines. If you're going to insist on continuing to disregard the rules then I'll have to take away the privilege to create new topics. :dunno:

Please use some sort of descriptive title when posting a new thread. This helps other users browse the forum and helps us keep things organised. Titles such as "Quick Question", "Help" or "Noob Question" are really unhelpful and I'll be locking topics with such titles from Monday onwards.

The Topic I made today was for new people because I have played 07 version becuase they might ask it. Lots of people start Topics asking Questions and I have only started One Topic for this version and posted in others. Will I play this version don't know because Franchise Hockey Manager newest version might come out in the summer. Does it work with 4 gigs of Ram and HD Intel Graphics?

Blackhawks Stanley Cup Roster is the Name of the Latest Rosters and no John Madden because 2 are Coaches,Janal Mayers,Victor Stalberg are not in latest Rosters. Divisions work in Progress because Game doesn't recognize changes and so is start date becuase like to get it to tioday Northwest Division is called Canada Division. West is Midwest. Central is Northcentral. Added New York and Centraleast ones but under Clubs in Pre Game Editor those to don't show up but have National Hockey League TM. Also Islanders know called Brooklyn Islanders but still play in New York Area,
In Teams Transactions no tshowing who was called up and sent down. Can't changed Trade Deadline date to day when Trading can start up again. Do like it how the Blackhawks got something in Return for like Hossa to get Roster down to League Rules but would like to change it like to 99.
If I put like McDavid rights to Blackhawks would mess up,Draft.

The problem is either got to up Salary Cap or redo Contracts because I notice a problem when playing with Blackhawks when get to November have to resign just so the Computer can make Trades to get under Salary Cap or better yet use change Start Date program to change date to June 1st 2015.

No the problem in Game is like the put Craig Anderson,Johnny O.,Routu on Waviers before the my A. GM can put them on the Block to get something in return but at least my team hasen't lost more then one Game. What the Game needs is a Option for what the A. GM is to do you your team,DFA so gives the Team like 10 days to try and Trade the person. Another problem is like Brad Richards if Rights are with a NHL team but plays for a Minor League Team is a Free-Agent.

What they need to do is Updated Rosters as of Stanley Cup and use Custom Date Program to get Date to today and have Blackhawks up 1 to Lighting meaning Standings would have bee as of end of season.

Plan on using Free-Agent Program and making everybody a Free-Agent then redoing the League as Draft by Team so if a person was just Drafted by a CHL Team then that was he will have but if it's a ÑHL and WHL he have both. But the problem is going to be some Players won't show as a Unsignrd Propesct who's rights are with NHL Team.

Re: How to prevent EHM Updates from Auto-uploading?

Post by MGSPORTS »

The latest will allow League Structure Edit in future and that's good, So would moving Trade Deadline date to end of season/Trading with other Leagues Options.
